Best destination to get historical information from the ancient Québec and Canada. The European used to come here to buy the Furs. It was a well known trading in the Lower Canada (Québec). Many historical documents, souvenirs, photos, and accessories and artifacts from ancient époques can be visualized here. Best destination for the kids and school age children.

Sadly it's not much cop sightseeing-wise. You pass right next to several construction sights, highways, and factories (those that have large pipes, funnels, and trucks outside, not the converted atmospheric exposed-brick ones) complete with the smells and the sounds. This is the industrial heart of a living city but it's neither scenic, serene, etc. Some parts of the path are less leafy than others so use sunscreen! It does get better right at the end, at Rene Levesque Park.
I can say this is one of the best parks on the island of Montreal, Amazing Park with bicycle path and wonderful view specially on spring & summer Autumn season, free parking in the surroundings (side streets). You can reach this area from the old port by taking the same bike path which is an amazing experience to discover the canal of Lachine, and the funny thing here is that the canal gets its name from the French word China (La Chine). The European explorers sought to find a route from New France to the Western Sea, and from there to China and hence auspiciously the region where the canal was built was named Lachine.
Excellent for a stroll and ice cream in the evening. Wish the restaurants were open after 6
I love going there by bike. I usually start by crossing the bridge at Atwater market, take the path till the abandoned factory, then cross the bridge again to end up in the old port
